Howard graduates from – and would recommend – Home Visiting Program Congratulations to Eleeziaa Howard for graduating from Home Visiting! Elee- ziaa entered the program prior to the birth of her daughter, Annalia, and continued until she turned 3 this June. Eleeziaa stayed engaged with the Home Visiting program through moves and job changes, participating in lessons and Home Visiting family events. When possible her partner, Ryan, attended events as well, occasionally bringing Annalia when Eleeziaa could not attend. Eleeziaa is committed to her family and to being the best parent she can be.

Joyce Retherford, FDP Director 541-444-8393 Sammy Hall, Warehouseman/Clerk 541-444-8279 Along with Ryan, she continues to learn and grow, planning ahead for the future. Eleeziaa works to share her cultural heritage with Annalia, attending Tribal events and learning traditional crafts (moccasins, jewelry, regalia and more). Eleeziaa had this to say, “I went into this parenting gig not knowing the ins and outs and having the guidance and visits helped a lot in the parent I am now. With the Home Visiting Program, we not only got educated on how to be better parents, we gained an important figure in our lives, our home visitor. If I had worries, she could inform me on things I didn’t know. My daughter knows who my home visi- tor is because she’s become a huge part in our lives.” When asked if she would recommend the program to other families, Eleeziaa replied, “Yes, definitely, especially those who have questions or worries.” Congratulations, Eleeziaa! 1 chicken cut up* (you can use thighs or whatever you like) 2 pounds pork ribs (bone-in) Soy sauce and white vinegar (3:1) Cayenne pepper (2 teaspoons or to taste) Garlic (5-10 cloves) Peppercorns (small palm full) Brown sugar (¼ cup) 1 bag white rice* Put everything in a big pot and bring to a boil.
